Interplanetary travel is not undertaken in a straight line. Instead, rockets follow a trajectory which loops past the moon or planets along the way to get a slingshot boost through the gravitational field of the object.

However, assuming you travelled in a straight line from the Earth to Neptune and the journey were planned so that the orbits of the Earth at launch and that of Neptune at arrival were in a straight line (Earth's aphelion and Neptune's perihelion), it would take approx 3.9 years.
